Judge Dredd Custom RG.

I'm in possession of a late 80's (88 0r 89) single humbucker routed RG Custom body which used to have, in its day, a Judge Dredd decal/paint job. The body was already stripped of neck and hardware when I purchased it so I'm now on the hunt for an original Wizard neck with the square neck joint. I'm not sure what type of tonewood has been used but its lovely and should produce an awsome sound. It's definately a U.S custom maybe routed and shaped in Japan but then sent to the U.S for it's finish and paint job.

Has anyone either owned or seen one of these guitars before (in its original form) or know how many were produced (100's, 1000's?) as I can't find much on them. I know from my Anthrax days back in the 80's that they used guitars with Judge Dredd/200A.D artwork. I think these would have been Charvel or Jackson. I'm probably wrong. It feels like a long time ago now. Many beers under the bridge later!

Anyway if anyone has an answer that would be brilliant. Fantastic site and forum by the way. I'm green but converted!

Don't remember any Dredd customs. The "Get it Away!" graphic might be close, but that's all I can think of. Might be an artist prototype. Hard to say. Got any pics?

No, what we are saying is that you can find out exactly what it is but first we need a link to a picture for positive identification. We would like nothing more than to help you.

Ok. Sorry guys I see what you're on about now. I'll get some pictures of the blank body ( for thats all I have) and get them posted. Thanks for the heads up in English. I'm old school and speak in plain English. Online jabber talk don't do it for me, dudes.
